Respond without sounding mad, Mr 100 ton assault. What alternative games are there for Mechwarrior?>MW5 is OK with mods.>MWO is MWO and slowly bleeding out. >MWO wolves has 1 playerIsnt there another fan made mod game of Mechwarrior? I remember it removed the mechlab and gives you role based mechs.
>>738227964Living Legends or something? But I thought that died.
>>738228969There's still servers for it. Someone else picked up the project not too long after the quiet C&D. Don't know if it's getting updates or not, but it should still be playable.
>>738229461It's still getting updated and 17 people are playing on a server rn
>>738229461gets very rare updates yes, usually has at least one (1) person playing on a serveri think its the #1 best MW game period but i will never not be pissed off at PGI for stymieing the development so hard
>Wolves 3rd wave came out and has players on the shitscord>MWLL still up and running>Metal Mercs seems interesting >Mechdoomer was released recentlyAll n all doing pretty good in the fan game department.All I need is an OpenXcom BattleTech mod.
>>738228969That's probably it. >>738229538Hell yeah>>738229604Corporations hate community involvement because it makes them useless. Also why managers fire people who come uo with (good) ideas bevause it steals their thunder. The modern corporate world is an anti meritocracy.
>>738227964like the firemoth better
>alternative gamesPlay heavy gear and mech commander.
>>738227964I run a hunchback with an lbx20 specifically to leg lights in MWO. pic not related
>>738230257Confirm something for meIs Mech Commander a battletech game?
>>738230394yeh
>>738230192I hate fire moth faggots so much it's unreal
>how do you respond without sounding mad>*melts your face
>>738230532nah the firemoth rocks, it's the best way to amass Clan Medium lasers and srms.
I love ppcs
>>738227964MW5 is now at a place where I would reasonably say it’s okay vanilla, and great with mods. On launch it was a sandbox with little to do and not a lot to collect for interesting mechanics builds. Now with melee added, more chassis, more weapons, pilot traits, more missions, and planet types it feels like a pretty solid sandbox mech game.
>>738230192Fire moth is kinda lame. Its slightly faster but no ECM. Kit fox can hold 2 heavy larges.>>738230532>he's not stomping lights.As a light player who runs around assaults, I also stomp lights. The only time lights have murdered me is in the middle of a big battle, or I only have ATMs.
>>738231082You're either the very best ever, or you're playing against shitty light players.
>>738230896My gripe is how DLC campaigns work since they lock you out of the sandbox. They also all assume you're Mason so the sandbox mode is just a main campaign skip in practice.
>>738227964If you have vr ovrlrd is pretty decent, its a single dev project so the update cycle is glacial but its fun enough
>>738227964I don't think you're outrunning 60 LRM+ART IVs from over a kilometer away friendo. If the first volley from the Longbow doesn't kill you outright, you're basically guaranteed to lose one of those legs. (An LRM packed Longbow also trivializes all of the clan missions in MW5 too.)
>>738231179I'll take "best ever" because I like praise.
>>738233437Stealth armor means you can't target them unless someone is shining ECM. In all the games I've gotten my shit wrecked its from ballistic or energy. I've been hit by probably 10 LRMs across 10 games.
Playing Shadow of Kerensky now.>come around corner >die instantly
Should I buy mwo5 with the DLC? $100 seems steep when quick play in mwo is free.
>>738233730just get cream installer
>>738233437Do missiles even keep up with mechs that go 150+kph?
>>738234362Thanks for the tip.>>738234481Good question. If the lock is held im pretty sure they lead the mech to hit properly. Most mechs of that speed can get into cover so quickly, is break line of sight, it doesn't matter. They are also very small so missiles naturally hit poorly.
>>738234481Since we have no book or tro all we can do is look at real life and extrapolate, an rpg-7 grenade reaches up to 1000 kph and a cruise missiles up to 6200. So yes they keep up
>>738234791That makes sense. Thanks
It is now time for crab.
>>738235035All things evolve into crabs given enough time.
>>738230380i honestly believe that mechwarrior 4 and its expansions contain the most fun of any mechwarrior game. (offline) i wish there were fan made mission packs or something for more content because its super fun and looks good for the time.
Whoever decided to bring back the original Polar Highlands needs to be caned. What a joy it is to play that map and end up against a team of lock-on faggotry that can kill you if you expose a single time. Amazing design.
>>738234481In MW5 they do. Your only hope is to break line of sight so they lose their tracking or at least get yourself into cover.
>>738236301Ah. Yeah I haven't played a ton of that, and I just recently updated everything too. I need to get around to it, but I always end up on MWO instead.
i just watched a scorpion light tank fly through the sky in mw5
>>738227964I just wish that 5 had a free for all multiplayer or something. as far as I can tell it is friends-only.Also, what mods would you recommend for it?
>>738222680Thank you for recs brother I realized I actually already had an Annihilator and it was fat enough to slap AC5s on instead of 2s. That was a funny match I played very poorly on.That faf judge looks insane though, I could fit 4 LB-10 X on it but i'm loathe to payfag this game. Might pick up Enforcer as well.
